Abstract
Modern military aircraft are prime targets for surface to air and air to air RF guided missiles. Modern missile systems in particular are difficult to counter and have an array of Electronic Protection Measures at their disposal. Expendable Active Decoys provide effective protection for fast jet platforms by creating a realistic false target that seduces the missile away from the protected platform. They can be fitted to almost all military platforms as they are expended from standard chaff and flare dispensers. Simple repeater devices have been produced in the past but they lack the sophistication to defeat modern threats. Digital RF Memory based jammers have the necessary capability but have always been too large due to their complexity. A system architecture, design features and technologies are disclosed to reduce the size of a Digital RF Memorybased jammer to fit within a volume 0.5 l.
